Cash advances for grain
shows faith in
Agriculture has been under-
going a revolution. Fundamental
reforms are necessary, The time
is long past due for the farmer to
get a fair share of the national
income. The Progressive Conserv-
ative party pledged fundamental
reform. But before anything real-
ly constructive can be done cash
advances for farm-stored grain
are needed to restore self-respect
in those- who till the soil. The
Progressive Conservatives promis-
ed this. Before the week is out
cash advances will become a real-
ity.
Thus spoke Hon, Alvin Hamil-
ton, ‘minister of northern affairs
and national resources, at a P.C.
nominating convention in Corona-
tion Hall Tuesday night.
It was necessary to review for
the members of the House of
Commons the background of what
has been happening to agriculture
for the past 20 years so they could
understand the dire need of the
farmer. This he did and when this
was explained most members were
surprised that the government
only advocated a loan of $186,-
000,000 for the farmers, interest
free; most members fully expect-
ed this to be an outright gift to
help make up their losses.
After the war when the price
controls were removed from goods
affecting all the rest of the people
of Canada, the western grain
farmers were asked to subsidize
every consumer of grain in this
country at the price of 7744 cents
a bushel long after the controls
were taken off. That amount of
7714 cents a bushel can be under-
stood only when you realize that
across the line our neighbors in
the United States at one time
were receiving as high as $3,50
a bushel for wheat of inferior
quality, That was the sacrifice the
people in Canada asked Western
Canada to make. We made that
sacrifice gladly during the war,
with no questions asked, but there
Was an understanding given by
the government of this country
during the war that when the
days of conflict were over we
would be given a hand in our diffi-
culties, *both on the question of
development and on the question
oof grain prices. Cash advances
meet not all the problems of the
farmers but it does answer one
need, and one that farmers have
felt deeply about the last seven
years.
Furthermore, following the war,
the people of Western Canada
were asked to go into a gigantic
gamble on their product: western
farmers were asked to go into the
British wheat agreement where
we voluntarily accepted a lower
price than the world price on the
pledge made by members of par-
liament that when that agree-
ment was over we would then re-
ceive a higher price than the
world price, whatever that might
be. That gamble cost the western
farmers 600 million. The good peo-
ple of Canada supported the gov-
ernment of that day in providing
us with a partial recompense to
the tune of $65 million, We appre-
ciate that 10 percent return on
the losses that we took, This gam-
ble was taken with the support of
the government of that day and
one of the opposition parties,
namely the CCF, and that gamble
failed,
Today we know in Western
Canada and all through Canada
that there has been a great revo-
lution going on in agriculture. We
know that fundamental reforms
are necessary. The fundamental
purpose to which we must set our
hands is to give to agriculture a
fair share of the national income.
Under this government we pledge
urselves to the fundamental re-
orm, But in the meantime, it is
necessary for us to see that the
machinery of marketing which we
have works‘a little bit better. That
is the reason for this cash ad-
vance legislation,
What then was the need for this
legislation? Since it does not meet
all the fundamental needs of ag-
riculture, why was it brought into
being? The answer is this very
simple fact. Not only do 200,000
farmers need cash at the usual
time of year when they pay their
bills but there are several thou-
sand merchants in Western Can-
ada who cannot operate’ much
longer on their credit until this
system comes into effect,
In the year 1951-52—that is the
crop year—in the months of Au-
gust to November, the farmers of
Western Canada received $305
millien in wheat board payments,
farmers
which include the initial payment
and subsequent payments, In the
year 1952-53 they received $381
million in this four-month period.
In the year 1953-1954 they receiv-
ed $328 million, During these three
years an average of $338 million
went into circulation in Western
Canada. -
Now those were fairly good
years for crop production in West-
ern Canada but this represents
the type of ‘thing that was going
on, Listen to these figures; in the
year 1954 to 1955 the -figure had
dropped to $159 million; in 1955
to 1956 it was $119 milion; in
1956 to 1957, $183 million; and
this year it was estimated at $147
million, or an average for the last
four crop years in Western Can-
ada of $152 million. This amount
of money was going into circula-
tion in a four-month period to
meet bills that ordinarily amount
to well over $338 million, the av-
erage in the three years 1951-54.
The difference between the av-
erage in the three years I first
quoted and the four years I have
just mentioned is $186 million a
year. In other words there is $186
million short in these four months
an amount usually used by the
farmer to pay his bills.
There are 62 milliori acres in
Western Canada called specified
acres. If you multiply that 62
million by the figure of six you
get a figure of 372 million bush-
els which is the number of bush-
els that Would be the highest level
on which you could expect to ad-
vance cash; that is to say 372
million bushels at 50 cents which
comes out to $186 million. So that
the highest possible figure for the
advance is $186 million which is
almost identical with the differ-
ence between the amount of
money that used to go into circu-
lation in the first three years
quoted from 1951 to 1954, and the
last four years. This is an effort
to meet and fill the gap where
there is a real economic need on
the part of the farmer, the busi-
ness man and the people of Can-
ada,
“If we had tried to evolve an
advance system based on all the
technicalities involved and _ to
meet every loophole of which the
dishonest person might try to
take advantage, we would not
have a cash advance bill brought
in for another year,’ Mr. Hamil-
ton said. “We produced a simple
bill, using the same system the
farmer has always used and we
have enough security there to
protect any average creditor, be-
cause those of us who live here
know the significance of the per-
mit book. The only may you can
beat this legislation is to quit
farming because then you will not
have a permit book.”
Mr. Hamilton pointed to the
fact that there are 230,000 farm-
ers in the four western provinces
who hold permit books, Of these
31,000 have less than 100 speci-
fied acres, 63,000 have between
100 and 199, 52,000 between 200
and 299. In other words two-
thirds of the farmers in Western
Canada have less than 300 speci-
fied acres,
These are certainly not the

GREY CUP MISSES—Miss Grey Cup (Europe) and her maids of honors helped dress up the Euro-

Then Mr. Hamilton went into
detail on just what cash advanees
mean to the farmer. On the basis
of No. 1 northern wheat, the
farmer on 50 specified acres re-
ceives 70 percent of the total in-
itial price and that works out at
86 cents a bushel. The farmer on
100 acres receives 60.3 percent of
the total initial price possible to
him, which works out at 74 cents
a bushel. And as one goes down
the list, on 200 acres the percent-
age is still 52 percent and the
price is 65 cents. When one reach-
es the largest classification of all,
1,000 acres, one finds that the per-
centage of the total initial price
has declined to 43, and the aver-
age amount of cash per bushel
available is 53 cents.
In the case of No. 4 northern
@ man with 50 specified acres re-
ceives 73 percent of his initial
price; the percentage is higher,
On 100 acres, 64; on 200, 56, and
so on,
Mr. Hamilton went on to tell
how the opposition, and Rt. Hon.
Jas. G. Gardiner, former minister
of agriculture, in particular, had
spoken against cash advances.
Mr, Gardiner said the Western
Canadian farmer would prefer the
Liberal system of bank loans on
which they must pay interest to
cash advances on which they pay
no interest. How silly could he
get?
When the government consider-
ed the matter of cash advances
they were warned by the “ex-
perts’—the same people who had
advised the Liberals—that cash
advances just couldn't work. The
Liberals took their advice, The
Diefenbaker party didn’t. They
worked out a very simple system
that demonstrates the Progres-
sive Conservatives have faith in
the farmers and Mr, Hamilton is
satisfied that trust will not be pe-
trayed. All that is necessary to
pet cash advances is to produce
the permit book and make a sta-
tutory declaration. Provisions are
made for abuse of this privilege
but they expect very little trouble
here.
Mr. Hamilton said that # is his
firm conviction that the govern-
ment recognizes ‘that in every part
of Canada many segments of our
population have begun to receive
less than their fair share of what
the national income of Canada
should provide for them, The gov-
ernment recognizes that justice
should provide not only for those
groups which have fallen behind
but also for those areas that are
lagging. Through its action in in-
troducing cash advances and the
other measures presented to the
house this sesslon—and in future
sessions — he believes that the
Canadian people will recognize
that what they have promised to
do they will do. He is sure this
has given the Canadian people a
great lift in spirit and has remov-
ed the skepticism of the thirties
because now they see in power a
party that will earnestly strive to
live up to the promises it has
made.—-The Enterprise, Yorkton,

Out on a limb
By Stumpy McCulloch
Ol’ Zeke was never one to waste
words. When he wandered into
the woods one day and didn’t go
home for supper, his grandson
went down to fetch him. The lad |
found Zeke standin’ in a clump of
bushes. “Ginnin’ dark, Grandpap”
the boy said. “Yep.”’ “Comin’
home, then?’ “Nope.” “Why not?”
“Cain’'t.” “Why can’t

Most fellers who grow timber
on their wood lots figure it’s
cheaper to cut it themselves than
sell it to an outside operator. For
one thing, you can cut wood any
time you want to—stich as during
the slack season. Besides, most
fellers are more careful if they're
cutting their own trees. They'll
want to get the timber out of the
woods without damaging their
younger trees, and that’s mighty
important. ‘Cause good forest
management depends on repeated
cutting, year after year!
Here’s a surprising fact. A fire
in Northern Wisconsin in early
October, 1871, killed 1,200 people
but hardly anybody heard about
it! Know why? ’'Cause on that
same night, October 8th, Mrs.
O’Learly’s cow knocked over the
lantern and set fire to Chicago.
And although the Wisconsin fire
killed four times as many people,
it was overlooked in the excite-
ment,

FOR
PRAY FOR OUR YOUTH
Though the press is wisely re-
fraining from publicizing the mis- |
behaviour of youth groups, a deep
concern prevails, Our teenagers
Were born in a period of war.
Many fathers were at war and
many mothers worked long hours
in factories. If there is an unusual
restlessness among youth, one of
the reasons is obvious,
In 1 Samuel, chapter 3, we
have two sharply contrasting pic-
tures of young people. Judgment
Was pronounced on the house of
Eli, the priest, ‘because his sons
made themselves vile, and he re-
Strained them not.” Alas, how
many parents are guilty at this
point. The unbiblical psychology
of “Let the child freely express
himself,” has proved the ruination
of many children and the frustra-
tion and sorrow of many parents,
Samuel, on the other hand, grew
up in the house of the Lord and
learned to be promptly obedient
to his superiors. His mother, a
woman of prayer, had promised
him to the Lord before his birth.
She kept her vow. But though
Samuel was such a good boy there
needed to come the occasion when
he would come to know God as a
person. ‘‘Now Samuel did not yet
know the Lord, neither was the
word of the Lord yet revealed
unto him,” This chapter tells of
God's personal revelation to Sam-
uel. When God called, Samuel
said, “Speak; for thy servant
heareth.”
Every youth needs a_ personal
encounter with God. Then life
takes on a deep meaning and
achieves a moving purpose. When
a youth surrenders to Jesus Christ
he not only finds peace for his
own soul but he develops a burn-
ing desire to share that peace
with others. This calls for all his
enthusiasm, his intelligence and
his strength. The Word of God,
the Bible, will be his guidebook.
It will be his daily counsel.
Let us not be glib in our criti-
cism of youth, Have we as par-
ents done our part? Are we dem-
onstrating in our homes the gift
of which Jesus spoke, “I am come
that they might have life, and
that they might have it more
abundantly.” (John 10:10). If not,
then we ought to first pray for
ourselves. Then we will be able
to help our youth,

Mr, Dingle—on a western line

is holding up well there has been
a falling off in the volume of

“I believe we shall see heavier

The Jack Miner Migratory Bird Foundation
DEAR FRIENDS:
In April last spring (1957) during National Wild Life
Week which was created by an Act of the Canadian
Parliament as a living memorial to the late Jack Miner
a prominent Catholic layman of Western Ontario stood
‘by the grave of the late Jack Miner and in his address to
his fellowmen said: “Here lies the body ofthe man who
was Canada’s greatest Christian.”
During the same week in the City of Sarnia an Angli-
can preacher addressing a Boy Scout rally in memory of
Jack Miner said: "On November 3, 1944, the day Jack
Miner died, he walked from his home to the Post Office
which was one block away and met five different men
all of whom he did not know and each man stopped him
and expressed his regret of Jack Miner's passing whom
they referred to as ‘Canada’s greatest Naturalist and one
of the world’s great citizens.’ ’’ All Canada mourned his
passing.
The Hon. John Diefenbaker, recently elected Prime
Minister of Canada, in paying his respect and tribute to
the late Jack Miner at the time of his death, said: “Jack
Miner's career has been one of great service to mankind.
Personally, I will always regard the three hours spent in
his company as the outstanding ones in my life.”
Bishop J. W. Smith said: “Jack Miner used the birds
of God to send the Word of God to the children of God
everywhere.’ Another Bishop in 1949, speaking of Jack
Miner, said: “Jack Miner’s bands with a verse of Scripture
on them were doing more actual missionary work than
all the paid missionaries in Canada.’’ What the Bishop
meant is the Jack Miner conservation program to save
birds from the hunters’ gun in the south and to care for
and fatten up 25,000 or 50,000 Canada geese and send
them north for the Eskimos and Indians was food for their
body and soul.
A little half-breed Indian whose mother was an Eskimo
wrote Jack Miner's sons from Hudson's Bay within the
Arctic Circle and said: “My daddy and grandfather shot
21 Canada Geese with your bands on their legs. You are
a very precious person for all of us because you preserve
the life of the wild geese we need for food.”
We do not recall the above facts to further eulogize
Jack Miner’s name. The Jack Miner Foundation is not an
organization to perpetuate his name because during his
lifetime he had carved his name so deeply in the hall of
fame for his love of God, birds and his fellowmen that
no one can erase it. We only mention the above facts
to say how important it is that this great Christian, con-
servation, scientific work started by Jack Miner be car-
ried on for future generations,
Here at the Jack Miner Sanctuary the public sees wild
life in its natural haunts and environment. Here children
can come and go and see the wild life in its habitat. .
The bird-lover is wholly sold on the Jack Miner program
of Conservation because it gives the non-shooter first
chance to see the birds living in safety,
The hunter realizes the place has both directly and
indirectly been saving a nest egg supply of ducks and
geese and other wild life to go north to nest and repro-
duce and not only this generation but generations to come
will not have to go to a museum and see a dead stuffed
specimen but will be able to look up in God's heavens
and see them flying over as one bird-lover said: “When
I look up in the skies and see a flock of geese heading
southward in the fall or northward in the spring I say
‘Thanks be to Jack Miner and his Conservation program.”
As a missionary project some people give and
bequeath thousands of dollars to carry on a missionary
project they had never seen but here is a chance to see
the geese that visit the Jack Miner Sanctuary deliver a
verse of Scripture to the Eskimos in the north and to
~»the hunters in the south.
It costs the Directors of The Jack Miner Foundation
nearly $30,000 annually to carry on the pregram started
by Jack Miner at the Jack Miner Bird Sanctuary located
at Kingsville, Ontario, Canada. This will reach hunters
who have paid that much for a hunting and shooting pro-
gram. What will you give the Jack Miner Conservation
program to conserve for your children's childien?
Several non-shooters give and have rightly given mil-
lions to endow a museum of stone and mortar where
only dead mounted specimens can be seen in glass cages.
What will you give to this Jack Miner Institution so your
children can see bird life alive?
We need several thousand dollars at this time to meet
the expenses. We welcome $1.00 or $1,000,000.
Please send your contribution for this maintenance

Save the Birds
By D. D. Lockhart, B.Sc.F,
In these troublesome days of world unrest, when men
and states growl and thunder at each other, it is refresh-
ing to recall the name and works of that beloved
naturalist, the late Jack Miner. Much has been written
concerning this man, and it is doubtful if there is a school
child who has not heard of his acts of humility and kind-
ness, done with never a thought of self aggrandizement.
His whole life was spent in the service of the birds and
the beasts. As a living testimonial to his service it is
only necessary to visit his modest Kingsville, Ontario,
home in the fall and to watch the regular southerly migra-
tion of thousands of Canada Geese. As a result of the
establishment of a sanctuary, a haven of rest was created
for the migrating birds. Undoubtedly the birds learned of
this refuge and in some wonderful manner transmitted this
information from one to another, with the result that the
migratory population increases year by year.
During his lifetime, Jack Miner financed his sanctu-
ary by means of lecture tours through the United States
and Canada. Some years before his death he created the
Jack Miner Foundation—a non-profit, non-salaried organi-
zation to which he gave his wordly goods. Since his death
in 1944 the Foundation has carried on with Government
grants and donations from his many friends interested in
the welfare of the wild creatures. However, in order to
guarantee that adequate funds are available to carry on
his work, and also to enable the Foundation to purchase
neighboring lands an Endowment Fund has been estab-
lished. We understand that contribution to this most
worthwhile fund have not been great, and we think it a
pity. Surely this work merits our generous support.

HIGHWAY SIGNS NOT
MEANT FOR TARGET PRACTICE
An appeal to the public to re-
frain from using highway signs
for target practice was issued by
L. T. Holmes, deputy minister of
the Saskatchewan Department of
Highways and Transportation. ~
“Each year we find it necessary
to replace a large number of
highway signs at considerable ex-
pense because persons have shot
them up,” said Mr. Holmes. “The
fall of the year is the worst time
and from this we conclude that
some hunters or ‘sportsmen’ are
not satisfied to shoot at game
only,
“Our records show that over
the years we have replaced more
signs southeast of Regina on
highway No, 33 and south of Re-
gina Beach on highway No, 54,
than anywhere else in the prov-
ince. Most vandalism at these lo-
cations takes place during the
summer when young people wan-
der along roadways, throwing
stones at signs or tearing them
down. However, when hunting
season opens, the sign damage
spreads over all of the province
and the culprits are more method-
ical, employing firearms.
“The cost of replacing ruined
signs is considerable. In addition
a great deal of inconveniece is
caused the travelling public when
destination signs are removed.
The practice is also very danger-
ous, in that bullets meant for
signs may well find their way to

Insulin diet
.
and exercise
The Canadian Diabetic Associa-
tion announces Diabetes Week in
Canada, November 14th to 21st
marks the week 35 years ago
When Banting and Best's discov-
ery of insulin was first made pub-
lic at a small medical meeting in
Toronto. Banting was then only
|30, and Best was 22. This discov-
ery led in a few short months to
the development of insulin on a
large scale which made it possible
to save the lives of thousands of
diabetics. Awards and distinctiohs
came to the two young discover-
ers from every part of the globe.
Patients flocked into Toronto for
treatment. This discovery placed
Toronto on the map as a first rate
medical centre, a position which
it has held since that time.
Today new drugs have been dis-
covered, but nothing can take the
place of insulin, diet and exercise.
These principles of self discipline,
50 easy to state, and so difficult
to carry into every day life, are
the reason for The Canadian Dia-
betic Association. This year every
diabetic in Canada
b is urged to
register with the Association.
Much yaluable information and
many services are made available
through the Association, Every
drug store in Canada has ayail-
able literature which will be of
interest and assistance to dia-
| betics. ’
Children particularly, should be
known to the Association because
developments of particular inter-
est and important research on
their behalf is being carried out
at present. Camps for children
were conducted at six centres this
year in Canada. The Association
is remarkable in that it makes
no public appeal for funds. The
activities are conducted entirely
by voluntary contributions from
members, friends, and from cer-
tain corporations with a particu-
lar interest in this group of peo-
ple.

DECEMBER 1,
Good morning, neighbors:
| No doubt you are being remind-
‘ed that Christmas is just around
}the corner—about which the Vir-
| den Enmpire-Advance, Man., com-
ments: Christmas is a joyful time,
a time for remembering others, a
time for giving, a time of good
will and warm affection and gen-
erosity. But Christmas need not
be a time of financial headaches.
For many the radiance of Christ-
mas is lot as budgets are strained
and bills pile up. Others manage
better. They shop early and choose
thoughtful gifts well within their
means, believing that it is not the
value of the gift but the affection
that goes with it that counts. Per-
haps in this year of grace, 1957,
it would be wise for all of us to
try to capture more of the real
meaning of Christmas, the cele-
bration of the birth of Christ.
Speaking of religious matters,
the Swan River Star, Man., tells
us that last Sunday night, Mr.
Coulthart of. the Kenville district
dreamed that the Sunday collec-
tion was left in the church. His
dream was so real, that on Mon-
day morning he went to see, and
sure enough the collection was
still there.
And still there
mentioned
is a neighbor
in another Manitoba
paper—the Birtle Eye-Witness
which states: “Our sincerest con-
gratulations to our old friend Hay
Gillespie of Russell, on being re-
elected president of the Russell
| Game and Fish Association for
the 14th time. Far too few people
|realize the tremendous amount of
| work that Hay has devoted to con-
servation over these many years,
On accepting the presidency at
the annual meeting, Hay quipped
“What this Association needs is
a good Past President!”
Judy wants to call it a day on
Kittens. The Brooks Bulletin an-
nounces: Last week we carried an
item about Judy Bacon, whose pet
kitten was missing following Hal-
lowe’en, Within a couple of days
following. the article, Judy not
only. got her own little kitten
back, but had the offer of 25 other
kittens too! Like we've always
said, it certainly pays to adver-
tise in The Bulletin,
In the same paper, the Brooks
Bulletin, we read that Henry
Downey of Youngstown shot a
rabbit which had a $20 bill in its
mouth, apparently dropped by an-
other hunter and picked up by the
rabbit.
Another unusual find—inside a
MOON-GLOW—A drift of chif-
fon and a rustle of taffeta com-
bine to achieve this enchanting
dress, perfect for the Yuletide
festivities in glowing holly red,
The taffeta, woven from Chemcell
acetate the beauty fibre, is richly
embroidered in lead motif. The
halter neckline falls into a wide
cumberland of red chiffon. A tiny
bow, tied at the back of the neck-
line, falls in streamers to the hem-
line. Available in the merriest
shades for Christmastime, the
glowing taffeta refuses to wrinkle
and drapes in lavish folds.

ments: If Mrs. O. Lemke of
Acadia Valley ran short of sealer
rings during the fall canning, she
wouldn't have “had a clue” where
some of them were, until she
started to prepare one of her
chickens recently. On opening the
bird, Mrs. Lemke found no less
than six sealer rings.
A feathered-friend news
appears in the North Battleford
News-Optimist, Sask., which tells
us that Earl Nutbrown of May-
mont has a Crow that he raised
from babyhood this past spring.
The crow, “Blackie”, is very much
King of the farmyard, or perhaps
we should say Queen. Anyway
time will give the answer to that
question! Blackie lives with the
chickens and has learned to cackle
exactly like a hen. On the other
hand, from being with the terrier,
it will bark and yip like a dog.
Often it has been the cause of
someone going outside to see what
was around, only to find the crow
standing on the road.
Mrs. Brown will probably be in-
terested in this school-teacher
news item in the Maidstone Mir-
rer, Sask, W. J. Davidchuk, who
teaches school in Hafford, is tak-
ing evening classes again this
winter at the University of Sask-
atchewan; this is his eighth win-
ter attending these classes. When
the weather is good, Mr. David-
chuk drives across country roads,
and highways, a distance of 70
miles. When- it snows he “just
goes around by North Battleford”
which means a 150 mile drive each
way for the two-hour lecture he
attends,
From travelling to sliding, we
turn to the High River Times,
Alta., which tells us that Mrs.
Hugh Eaglesham, who is building
up quite a reputation as a bird-
watcher, noticed. eight or nine
sparrows indulging in some odd
antics last week. Mrs. Eaglesham
and the children happened to be
waiting in the car at the George
Noble farm, when one of the
youngsters spied a plump spar-
row sliding down the steep-sloped
tin roof of an out-building on his
feet. The experience apparently
proved enjoyable and the rest of
the birds joined in the sport—
sliding down to the edge of the
roof, and flying back up to the top
of the roof to repeat the perform-
ance!
Repeating vows (perhaps silent-
ly) which they made to each other

worthy wedding anniversares: Mr,

Boy Scout canvass

The Melfort Boy Scouts Asso-

génerous response by the citizens
of the Town to their canvass, con-
ducted recently.
The objective was nearly
reached, and.this will ensure that
necessary expense will be met,
It was pleasing to the commit-
tee that so many parents of cubs
and scouts assisted in the can-
vass and also that so many busi-
nessmen co-operated in the pub-
licizing of the drive.
A sincere thanks is extended to
one and all for their help,-The

Speaking of the famous Sput-
nik and Muttnik, the McCreary
Times, Man., states: Last week,
while folk were gazing heaven-
ward with hopes of catching
glimpses of Muttnik, one of the
nurses at the hospital was sure it
had returned to earth when she
woke to find a small dog in her
bedroom. It appeared that in order
to escape the chill of the night air,
he had crawled through the open
bedroom window and was prepar-
ed to stay for the night. He was
identified in the morning and was
returned to his home on the other
side of town,
Staying on his job for a long
time has been this neighbor men-
tioned in the Lloydminster Times,
which notes that “Pop” Ellis has
just received a golden anniversary
certificate from the Canadian
Pharmaceutical Association, Tor-

“Awarded to Hugh Allison Ellis
in recognition of 50 years of ser-
vice in the active practice of
pharmacy, presented on the occa-
sion of the observance of the
Fiftieth Anniversary of the. Can-
adian Pharmaceutical Association
Inc. It is interesting to note, how-
ever, that last February, “Pop”
completed 65 years of service as
a pharmacist.
And—‘to complete the news”—
here are two squibs. The Wadena
News, Sask., reports this school
story from the Invermay district.
Mrs. Ferrie, the teacher, said to
her class: “If these are seven
flies on your desk and you kill one,
how many will remain?” One pu-
pil immediately replied: ‘One,
teacher—the dead one.”
And the other squib concerns
Highway Safety. One of our pa-
pers comments: The number of
automobiles is increasing by leaps
and bounds... and pedestrians
are surviving in the same way.
Good morning, neighbors, and

Safe Christmas
driving
The’ drinking Christmas-time
driver is one of the major threats
to road safety, according to the
All Canada Insurance Federation.
Officials of the federation, which
represents more than 200 fire,
automobile and casualty insur-
ance companies in Canada, said
drinking and driving was a major
cause of accidents year-round, but
particularly during the Christmas
season. They pointed out that the
effect of liquor varies so greatly
from person to person that it is
impossible to measure the amount
of liquor which can be taken be-
fore driving becomes impaired.
Urging motorists and _ pedes-
trians to be ultra-cautious during
the holiday, safety experts rec-
ommend the following precau-
tions:
@ Don't drive if you plan to
drink; use a bus or taxi.
@ Non-drinking drivers should
take extra precautions against
mistakes made by drinking
drivers.
@ Never ride with a driver who
has been drinking.
@ The traditional “one for the
road” should be coffee if you
are driving; although coffee
will not sober an intoxicated
driver; it has a steadying ef-
fect on social drinkers, and
helps prevent fatigue and
drowsiness,
@ Remember that 50 percent of
all accidents are caused by
speeding.
Keep windshields free from ice
and snow.
Never drive with fogged head-
lights, }
@ Keep the number of passen-
gers in the car at a minimum;
crowded cars are hazardous.
@ Never drive too close to the
car in front. — The Times,

Dear Bonnie:
Requests for information con-
tinue to come in and in the past
few weeks, there
eral conferences — Adjudicators,
Regional and Saskatchewan High
School Drama_ Association. In
every case, one or more persons,
when these articles were mention-
ed, spoke up and said they had
read them or a friend had recom-
mended them, In two cases, where
the people in cities do not get this
type of weekly newspaper service,
they inquired where they could
get them. I was happy to say
|‘Canadian Weekly Features, 1410
Scarth St., Regina’. Ido hope many
people read them and profit by
them. One teacher is clipping
them and pasting in a scrapbook
for future reference,
Last week, I talked about Act-
ing. I wish to remind both you
and your cast that they must not
be impatient if they do not get
results right away. It takes a
long time to develop an actor or
build a play.
There are many skills and tech-
niques to learn and then by ex-
perimenting, grow proficient in
their use. After a time of con-
sistent practising, their use every
day becomes automatic and one
forgets they ever had to learn
them. So many points can be util-
ized in every day living. This is
perhaps the most important rea-
son for everyone to try a bit of
acting sometimes during their
lives, and the earlier the better.
This learning makes better em-
ployers and employees, Thus bet-
ter citizens n a democratic coun-
try. ‘
For instance —people learn to
speak more, carefully and more
audibly, their posture improves,
co-operation with others is prac-
tised, better public relations are
increased, team work becomes an
important factor, tensions are re-
laxed as actors work and laugh
together, direction and criticism
is taken graciously, better yng-
lish becomes a necessity. After
three months rehearsals, these
and many other things become a
matter of habit to the participant.
I realize that you know many
of the above-mentioned facts, but
thought it wise to recall them to
your mind, or if new to you, they
will give you something to con-
sider and put into practise.
You should be into scene re-
hearsals by this time. Do your
actors realize they cannot be told
‘how’ to act? That the body must
be under control all the time —
‘mind over matter’. Are your ac-
tors giving all the time? Are they
aware of everything around them
listening with ears, pores of their
body, even soles of their feet? Do
they now realize that character is
the result of action? Are they
showing that they have determin-
ed relationship with the other
characters in the play? Will the
audience know by little manner-
isms that they are brother and
sister, husband and wife, old
friends or strangers? Have they
made their characters as interest-
ing as possible? Can they be
heard outside the walls of the re-
hearsal room? Are they beginning
each speech with attack, Remind
them that people come to hear the
play as well-as to see it and audi-
ence’s like their money’s worth,
Have they decided what impres-
sion each actor is expected to
make? A friend of mine in a re-
cent play, had a very small part
and said “Yes, Madam” six times.
She wanted to give it up. I re-
minded her that more individual
acting awards in festival have
gone to small parts than to large |
ones, I afivised her to develop the
character skilfully, play it skil-
fully, by telling the audience what
kind of a mistress she was—what
she knew about her that the audi-
ence had not been told, Small
parts belong in a play and like a
watch, it wouldn’t run without
them. My friend went about her
business and did a fine job the
night of the show and received
many compliments she had earn-
ed by her interpretation.
She also learned to develop a
triple personality, “Three eyes”
she laughingly stated, One eye
she kept on herself, one eye on
the character and the third eye on
the audience. She learned to use
many tones in a lower and higher
vocal range and color each speech
with the right emotion, Also to
sit in one hundred different ways,
while she was learning to sit down
and curtsey graciously for her
several entrances, how to go up
and down stairs with her eye level

| up
not on the steps as she had/|
always done before. She practised |
this at home when going up and!
down to the basement a
dozen
times a day. She found it was
just like learning French. It took
time and practise, but was worth-
while.
| Movement in the play
| There must be motivation for
; all movement. It must be justified
and completed, The style of move-|
ment will be according to the cos- |
tume, period, physical limitations, |
pace of scene and other things.
Mechanics should only be used
after a foundation to support
them has been established, Some |
are traditional and they are as
follows: 1. Actors usually keep
the body at a 45 degree angle to
the audience, and use the neck to
turn the head as required, 2, Make
turns toward the audience unless
told to do otherwise for some spe-
cific reason, 3. Always start to
move with the foot nearest the
backstage. This may require a
change of weight to start. 4. Al-
ways enter the stage with the
upstage foot—cross a threshold of
a doorway with upstage foot if it
is a strong entrance or exit de-
sired—for a weak or foolish en-
trance or exit, reverse it. 5. The
actor who enters last, speaks first
and vice versa. Authors do not
state this, but it brings the actors
well into the acting area. 6. Two
actors seldom move in the same
direction at the same speed at the
same time. 7, Kneel on the down-
stage knee. 8. Never move with-
out a reason evident to the audi-
ence, 9, Nearly always move on a
stressed beat. 10. Try to break up
an exit speech to keep the audi-
ence’s interest in you until you
leave. 11, Rise fast from a seat
on comedy lines, more slowly on
dramatic lines. 12. Think about
changes of level.
Sitting—if ne person is sitting
on a chair, another may sit on a
hassock, a stool, arm of a chester-
field or on the floor.
Standing—lean on the back of
a chair, the table, bookcase, the
mantle, but never support your-
self on objects unless you are that
kind of character.
13. Difficult scenes should be
rehearsed privately and in great
detail, then fitted into play to pre-
vent too mifch loss of time for
other members of the cast. (a)
Love—if standing, start at a dis-
tance and work up to it, Thus
the embrace at the end isn’t long
|or embarrassing. Watch foot and
| body positions carefully. (b) Ar-
guments—should be started as far
apart as possible then as the argu-
ment grows, approach and retreat
until there is some settlement.
(c) Eating meals—watch the cor-
rect use of knife and fork, use in
rehearsal until handling becomes
easy. Learn to swallow food or
drink at the same place in the
same line every rehearsal for
sake of good timing. Crumbs of-
ten cause choking at the wrong
moment and can cause laughter
| where it is not desired. (d) Vio-
lence should be covered by a piece
of furniture or by people. This is
much easier than actually plan-
ning and working out the correct
execution of every detail. This in-
cludes—Fight or combat scenes:
cover or shield dead bodies. Par-
tially hide the body whenever pos-
sible with furniture, If this is not
possible cover with blanket or
coat,
(e) Learn how to fall. Relaxing
the body joint by joint. Try it
out on a bed and then transfer to
rehearsal on a rug. In this way,
you will not, be bruised or any
bones broken during the learning
process,
14, Gestures usually proceed the
spoken line, using the upstage
hand except for such gestures as |
using a gun, saluting or any set
type of hand movement, Wrist
leads in gestures, (eyes follow
the fingertips). Be sure each ges- |
ture is completed. Enlarge all ges-
tures so they will carry to the
back of the hall, Incidentally, only
a vulgar person points to himself
on the pronoun ‘I’,
15, Actors must learn to project
their voices by training them-
Selves not just to listen to what|
they say but to hear it, When a
scene is to be played in brief
darkness, more projection is need-
ed but voice quality must be
maintained,
In repeating lines, try to
change the stress—I love you—I
love you-—-I love you—depending
on the meaning intended, Fluffed |
}lines may ruin the whole scene. |
But if a line is fluffed, go on, don’t!

DECORATING
A trip through town last night,
up the streets and down the
avenues, revealed two things, as
home decorations and
adornments Tor the Christmas
Season are*concerned, First of all
it was quickly noted that much
decorating has been done
this year than last, at least there
are a lot more colored lights to
be seen, Secondly, it became evi-
| dent that there is still a long way
to go before the town as a whole
can be considered really well-
decorated, ;
The general impression in many
areas iS a very colorful one
though, and it is a real pleasure
to drive around and view the va-
rious sights. There are many
strings of colored lights on houses,
|; trees and bushes. Here and there
are to be seen attractively flood-
lit Santas or Manger Scenes, It
seems to add something to the
Christmas Spirit in the air that
is becoming more evident with the
passing of each day,
The Chamber of Commerce is
to be commended for its ambitions
to foster and encourage this type
of decorating as it certainly tends
to make for a pretty and attrac-
tive town at this time of year.
Officials of the organization might
do well to consider, however, for
future reference, that their efforts
would likely be rewarded with
more satisfactory results if more
members of the sponsoring organ-
ization set a better example. -

EARLY TREATMENT
In tuberculosis, as in most dis-
eases, the earlier a case is found
and treatment started, the bet-
ter the outcome igs likely to be.
If disease is slight when discov-
ered and treated the time taken
for recovery is generally shorter
and the danger of relapse is great-
ly reduced.
stop and drop out of character,
Phrasing,is to bring out the key
words. Look for the thought in
each line, then say it but do not
stop until something has been
said,
Keep the voice up at a comma.
Always imply answers for most
speeches. Read a line DOWN for
great finality, great decision or at
the end» of a scene. Watch words
or important parts of words be-
ginning or ending with plosives—
B, D, T, K, G, P, and articulate
them carefully.
If swearing is
required, learn
| to answer like a gentleman with-
out punching them. Just slide
over bad words,
Until experience is gained, us-
ually walk and then talk, or talk
and then walk, depending on the
type of scene. As rehearsals pro-
gress, this will be speeded up.
Next week, I shall discuss more
on posture, gestures, masking and
focussing attention, Until then—
Sincerely yours,

least, Canada Malting Comp-
any, the country’s largest mal-
tster, has indicated it is not
prepared to accept Gateway.
This was made known in a let-
ter to all grain handling organ-
izations, which stated. ‘‘After
three years of testing, inelud-
ing two years of plant scale
testing, it has been determined
that the extreect in Gateway
barley is much lower than Olli
In view of this we are
forced to refuse to accept Gat-
eway barley for malting purpo-
ses. In the meantime we must
recognize Olli barley as the
most suitable malting variety
grown in the province of Al-
berta.”

Due to the fact that no de-e-
ga.es were sent from Carbon
to the Annual Convent.on of
the F.U.A., I thought egg pro-
ducers in the Carbon district
might be interested in the act-
ion taken by ihe F.U.A. Cou-
vention on the recent Egg Mar-
ket.ng Plan vote, The facts are
as follows:
1. The Hon. Minister of Agri-
cilture Mr. Haimrast addres-
sed the Convention a few
hours after the vote was made
pw lic.
‘2. He was presen: for a ques-
tion -nd discussion period that
followed. ‘
3. Irregularities in the elect-
ion cf the vote were general in
a great many areas of this
province.
4. The F.U.A. Convention with
a majority of at Ieast 500 to 1
asked the Provincial Govern-
ment for a new vote.
5. Mr. Haimrast agieed to
bring this matter to the atten-
tion of the Cabinet at his earl-
iest convenience.
6. Saskatchewan will have a
vote on the same issue in Feb-
ruary 1958.
Some of the above stated
facts may need some elaborat-
ing and I would be glad to do
